Ahmed, will your homegrown copter fly this Saturday?
Resource information at Drones project! - duncan
No, This Saturday (9/14) we will build the frame of the quadcopter then for each subsequent week adding components until we get a full grown quadcopter with whatever add-on we can. -Ahmed

We built the frame of the quadcopter. Here are some of the images we have taken during the assembly:
